This is it. Reddit will keep pulling dumb shit that drives users away and hurts engagement for short term profits. Having viable and stable alternatives gives people a place to go so they don’t feel trapped.

Elon is the kind of guy who picked a goofy xbox gamertag when he was a kid and never stopped using it. I wouldn’t know.

That literally just proves that we do in fact need more busses. More vehicles would allow for a wider coverage with more frequent and well organized stops.

That’s understandable, I think my (and many other refugee adopters) are just trying to figure out how the fediverse works and how instances communicate with each other. If I have a .world account I can pull threads from the other Lemmy servers, can I cross the streams into something like Mastodon too?

I’m very excited to see how this all develops. Right now it’s pretty rough and the constant failure to load/comments getting duplicated or disappearing hurts a lot but it does have potential. Let the Lemmy’s free!

Get a Japanese washcloth, you animals. It’s like a loofah that’s been unraveled into a single rough cloth. A bit of body wash or even a bar of soap folded into it and you can hold the ends and scrub your body and back. Gets off all the dead skin and sweat, it’s great.

Hard to tell at this point, this is extrapolated speculation and shouldn’t be taken as statements of fact.

Musk has a policy of fucking around with other people’s money and not paying his debts. That works with companies smaller than him, but when Google is hosting a significant amount of Twitter infrastructure they can absolutely pull the plug.

Twitter is suddenly unable to function at the current volume of traffic. They limit access to only logged in users. They fired all their competent engineers so they import a hack job that seems to be CONSTANTLY checking if users are logged in. So much that the website is DDOSing itself from the attempts.

Elon, ever the moronic silver spoon man baby, puts in a nonsense policy of “tiered access” where you can only see a certain amount of tweets per day? Advertisers are obviously pissed off because that’s directly cutting their reach and access.
